Originally from Oamaru, I studied Dentistry in Dunedin and graduated in 1998.

In 1999 I moved to Christchurch and was the Dental House Surgeon for the year.

I travelled overseas on my O.E, returning to Christchurch where I have worked and lived since.

In June 2002 I joined the team at St Albans Dental Centre, working full time.

I like to keep up to date in the world of dentistry by attending courses and reading journals.

I live in Sumner with my husband Richard our cat “Kitty” and labrador “Zeb”

Outside work I enjoy the outdoor life of running and being at the beach with the dog.
